Officers said they found a man dead inside a car next to an apartment building.

A woman who lives in the complex said she saw the car and the body from her window.

"The passenger window on the left side is shot out, I don't know about the driver side because it was down. I don't know if it was shot out or not, but you could see the body slumped over. I looked out the window just to see if it was true and I'm, like, maybe to see if he could move, but he didn't. He was dead. It's just kinda rough," Iteria Lovett said.

Lovett said she had not heard any gunshots.

The car was towed from the scene Tuesday afternoon, but crushed branches remain where the car crashed.

“To be looking out of my window at a dead body in the car -- I have never seen that in my whole life. So it’s something new to me. It's kind of scary,” Lovett said.

“Makes me want to move, but like I said earlier, it still doesn't matter. It’s still gonna be the same thing. It might not be that close to where I'm living, but it's still gonna happen, no matter what,” Foster said.

Detectives said they believe the man who died was in his 40s or 50s.

Officers left the man's body inside the car as it was towed from the scene.

“All I was thinking about was when the family finds out what happened, how would they react to it, you know? The same way I would react to it if it was somebody in my family,” Lovett said.

Investigators took notes and talked with neighbors, gathering evidence they hope will help them track down the killer.

“Right now, they don't know who did it, and that's the scariest thing about it. They don't know if they're gonna come back and shoot somebody in the back of the alley or just come out here shooting,” Lovett said.

Neighbors say this is the second shooting they've seen this year at this apartment complex.
